TWO JEWS WALK INTO A BAR(116 min)Back by popular demand! Join us for a cinematic pub crawl down U street: 2 bars (Dunya, LIV) 13 films. $30 gets you 3 drinks and admission!

HOW IT WORKS:

A few days before the short-film bar crawl begins, pre-registrants will receive an email with their starting bar location; depending on attendance (and last year, this event was full), we will run one, two or three groups.

At each bar, your ticket will get you a complimentary drink, and there will be roughly 40mins of new Israeli/Jewish Cinema playing. Once a group is done at one bar, the entire group will move to the next location.

Start time is 1pm sharp!

If there are still tickets avaialble after pre-sale, please go to LIV as your first location, as that will be the only bar processing on-site sales for the event.

Set in Dublin in the 1970’s this film explores a rarely glimpsed Ireland, as seen through the eyes of spirited seven year old, Hannah Cohen.
